Tom, good thread, but where to begin?!
For Tuscany Room with a View. I spent six weeks in Florence
when I
was in college and the backdrop of this beautiful Renaissance
city
took me back to my summer there. Amelie is fun to watch and
it
portrays MontMarte as a colorful and quirky place. Babette's
Feast, Like Water for Chocolate and Tampopo are wonderful for
their settings but also great foodie-movies! I have never been
to
India, but the rich and lush colors of Monsoon Wedding just
amaze
me. A movie that I keep wanting to revisit, is a charming little
gem
titled Local Hero that takes place in Scotland. My list could
go
on and on and I didn't intend for my list to be all Foreign
films -
but, what can I say!
